.......that would take some beating! Just back at the hotel and reflecting on tonight's show.joe played a blinder,great backing from a new(mostly,to me),band,just the right amount of horn and Hammond for me,tho the odd one said it was a bit too much-took away from Joe 's solos,and they may have a point,but to me,with this calibre of musicians,was just about right.A good 'power trio'start,Spanish Boots kicked things off,and as for our 'possible restricted view'ticket-well......slap bang centre stage,two rows above the mixing desk was as good as we could have got,no craning of the neck to see over anyone in front on the level,I'm sure petew would agree,as we introduced ourselves before the gig.The night flew by,before we knew,Sloe Gin picked up,morphing into John Henry,then two encore songs I didn't know but, having bought the Muddy Rocks cd there,I'm sure they're on there. look out,uk,this is a class act,enjoy!
